Arrivals & reception
A clear welcome.
Plan staff entry, visitor arrival and reception operation together. Readers, intercoms and suitable entrance control can support a welcoming arrival while keeping access beyond reception intentional.

Make your workplace feel welcoming. Keep it under control.
Great access control supports the experience of a building: an uncomplicated arrival, clear permissions and less friction for the people managing it.
Your building in use
Everyday access.
Considered from the start.
Internal spaces
Permission where it matters.
Separate general circulation from private offices, plant rooms, stores and IT areas. Door permissions can reflect roles and working hours, with authorised changes made as teams or tenancies change.
Multiple tenants & sites
Management that fits the estate.
We establish who administers common areas, who manages each tenant’s space and which teams need access between buildings. The selected platform should support the responsibilities and boundaries you need.
A practical management model
Choose how your
office manages access.
Cloud access control can suit organisations that want authorised teams to manage several buildings remotely. A locally managed platform may fit an existing IT environment or a particular operational requirement.
Digilec works with DoorFlow, Avigilon Alta, Paxton, Salto and other access systems. We help you compare the management approach, suitable credentials, ongoing costs and options for extending the installation.
Explore cloud access and software integrations ↗Cards, fobs and mobile access.
We select credentials around your people and the installed equipment. Options include cards and fobs, supported mobile credentials and Apple Wallet access on compatible platforms and devices.
For cards and fobs, DESFire can support encrypted credential use when the readers and system are configured appropriately. We assess the complete credential arrangement.
Spaces that work harder
The right room.
At the right time.
Meeting rooms, tenant areas and staff-only spaces need access arrangements that reflect how they are used. We connect the door design with the permissions and supported workflows behind it.
- Access groups for different teams and tenants.
- Supported booking and membership connections.
- A considered experience beyond reception.
People & permissions
From the first visit
to the last working day.
Visitors & contractors
Access with a purpose.
Consider who invites a visitor, which doors they need and when access should end. We assess supported visitor systems, temporary credentials and reception release arrangements against your operating policy.
Joiners & leavers
Keep permissions current.
We help define access groups and management responsibilities so new starters, role changes and leavers can be handled consistently. Any connection to another business platform is checked for supported functions.
Coworking & bookings
Connect the booking to the door.
For flexible offices, we assess supported links between access control and platforms such as OfficeRnD or Nexudus. The design includes the route to the booked room and the permissions needed along it.
The physical installation
Good access starts
with a working door.
We survey the door sets, existing locks, readers, cable routes, power and network. Wireless options such as ASSA ABLOY Aperio can be considered for suitable internal doors, subject to platform and hardware compatibility.
The design also covers door closing, monitoring and the agreed exit and emergency-release arrangements. These details are coordinated with the building’s requirements and the appointed project team.
We can assess intercoms, CCTV, gates, barriers, speed lanes and lift access as part of the project. A supported CCTV integration can help authorised teams review video associated with access events; functionality depends on the selected systems.

An everyday experience
Make coming to work
feel straightforward.
A card, fob or supported mobile credential should help people move through their day. We help you choose the access methods and administration model that suit your building.
- A clear process for new starters and leavers.
- Temporary access planned around visitors.
- Responsibilities agreed with your facilities team.
Fit-outs / Refurbishments / Existing offices
Plan the change.
Support the building.
For occupied offices, we agree the sequence of works and temporary access arrangements with the client. For fit-outs and refurbishments, we coordinate with contractors and door suppliers so the access installation follows the programme.
Commissioning and administrator handover help the facilities team manage everyday changes with confidence.
After completion, we can provide planned maintenance, fault investigation and permitted remote support. We also review office access systems installed by other providers.

Your questions.
Clear next steps.
Can you review access control in an office we already occupy?
Yes. We assess the current equipment, user arrangements and any problems at the doors. We can then propose repairs, additions or an upgrade around the building’s operation.
Can tenants manage their own users?
Where the selected platform supports suitable administrator roles and separation, we can configure responsibilities around landlord and tenant requirements. The permitted level of control is agreed during design.
Can office access work with meeting-room bookings?
Yes, with a supported combination of booking software and access platform. We confirm the integration, subscription requirements and access timings, including the complete route to the meeting room.
Can one system cover multiple offices?
Suitable platforms support multi-site management. We assess each building’s equipment, connectivity, permissions and support requirements before proposing the architecture.
